introduction to Compilers
Find and investigate an example of a practical problem solved using any of the
theoretical concepts discussed in this course (such as state machines, formal
grammars, syntax trees or compilers). Your investigation should highlight the
nature of the problem and explain the solution. The discussion should be
around 500 words. You will be assessed on:
1.) Novelty [5 marks]
You should aim to find an example that was not discussed in class, and
that clearly demonstrates how the theory was applied.
2.) Academic presentation and referencing [5 marks]
You should use academic language and properly reference your work.
3.) Content [10 marks]
The discussion should be clear and concise. You need to provide a
general discussion but can facilitate this by an example.
